Wonderwall.com
The dog days of summer are upon us, and it’s time for Wonderwall.com to round up the best and worst fashion of this steamy month. First up? A miss from this music star… Katy Perry picked a fabulous shade for an appearance at the MAGIC Fashion Trade Show Las Vegas on Aug. 9, but the silhouette of her ruby red Cult Gaia knit dress lost us. A plethora of cutouts, funky sleeves and a midi-length skirt combined for an underwhelming ensemble, though we did appreciate the neutral tan sandals she added.

This short purple shift dress from Oscar de la Renta scored Mindy Kaling a hit this month.

Coastal grandmother style is all the rage, but we weren’t a fan of Gwyneth Paltrow‘s take on the trend when she stepped out in this look in New York City on Aug. 10. The Goop mogul sported a short-sleeved baggy white button-down blouse with khaki pedal pushers and white sneakers for a puzzling combination, adding a pop of color via a bright red bag.

Sienna Miller wowed in powder blue at the premiere of the series “The Sandman” in London on Aug. 3. The stylish star’s knit frock by Self Portrait included a keyhole detail, sweetheart neckline and romantic flared sleeves. White leather sandals from The Row and a simple white bag completed her chic summer ensemble, which was instantly one of our favorites of the month.
Though we give her props for sporting plenty of color, we weren’t wild about the tie-dye Ralph Lauren sweatsuit Jennifer Lopez rocked while heading into a dance studio in Los Angeles on Aug. 8. It just looked like a very warm outfit to be wearing in the Southern California heat. She finished the coordinates off with some stark white sneakers, pink sunnies and a green bag.
Brad Pitt turned up at the Los Angeles premiere of his film “Bullet Train” on Aug. 1 in this strange custom Haans Nicholas Mott look — a bright green wrinkled linen suit paired with a collared teal shirt. If the haphazard, bright and messy getup wasn’t bad enough, the shoes added insult to injury…
Brad Pitt added these clown-like bright yellow and red striped adidas x Gucci Gazelle sneakers that would make Ronald McDonald proud.
Gorgeous! Tiffany Haddish served up one of our favorite looks of the month at the “Easter Sunday” premiere in Los Angeles on Aug. 2 — this bronze Jonathan Simkhai cowl-neck slip dress. From the barely-there spaghetti straps to the thigh-high slit, this was the perfect pick for a film premiere on a hot summer night. She added Stuart Weitzman sandals and a funky Marzook clutch with feathers to finish off this fab ensemble. Let’s take a closer look…
Tiffany Haddish’s Marzook clutch added some sparkle and feathers to jazz up her excellent attire at the “Easter Sunday” premiere. She also dressed things up even further with Irene Neuwirth jewels.
Lili Reinhart stepped out in New York City on Aug. 9 in a disastrous Tory Burch number. The beauty scored a fashion miss in the brand’s colorblocked jersey dress in bold eggplant and neon yellow hues — a combo we don’t need to see again — and topped it with a chunky black leather belt.
Zimmermann never disappoints! Maitreyi Ramakrishnan arrived at a fan screening for season 3 of her hit Netflix show, “Never Have I Ever,” in New York City on Aug. 9 in this dreamy long-sleeved minidress by the brand covered in bold purple, pale blue and neutral gray embellishments featuring bell sleeves. Completing this chic look on the young star? A pair of gray Casadei platform Mary Janes.
We’ve grown used to Daisy Edgar-Jones nailing every red carpet lately, so this Connor Ives + The Vanguard dress was a surprise. The funky fringed frock she wore to the Locarno Film Festival in Switzerland on Aug. 5 included floral embroidery and an asymmetrical neckline and hem, giving off an overall boho vibe that doesn’t fit the star. The Jimmy Choo sandals were a good choice, however, as were her accessories…
Daisy Edgar-Jones added some Tiffany & Co. jewels to infuse some sparkle into her otherwise odd boho-chic ensemble. Fortunately, she rocked a look much more in line with her personal style the same day…
That same day at the Locarno Film festival in Switzerland, Aug. 5, Daisy Edgar-Jones also sported this sweet Miu Miu shirt dress featuring a white semi-sheer collared bodice paired with a stark black miniskirt. This buttoned-up pick felt much more in line with her fashion vibe lately and paired perfectly with cute Mary Janes.
Pretty in pink! Heidi Klum hit the “America’s Got Talent” season 17 live show red carpet in Los Angeles on Aug. 9 in this hot pink minidress. From the sweet bow detail at the shoulder to the way she paired it with matching strappy sandals, this cheery look scored a hit from us.
We adored the shade of the electric blue pantsuit Emmanuelle Chriqui wore to the “Easter Sunday” film premiere in Los Angeles on Aug. 2… we just didn’t love the styling. The star paired it with stark black accessories — a belt and peep-toe pumps plus a black bralette.
Tracee Ellis Ross showed off laid-back summer style in New York City on Aug. 9. The star sported this striped tank top tucked into high-waisted baggy jeans and finished it off with some fun accessories — big hoops, a tiny white crossbody bag and chunky white sandals.
“Vanderpump Rules” star Lala Kent rocked a puzzling getup at the MAGIC Fashion Trade Show Las Vegas on Aug. 8 — a blazer over top matching brown bike shorts and a tank top — and then dressed things down with chunky sneakers.
Jennifer Lawrence kept things cool and casual in this breezy dark brown Matteau maxidress when she stepped out for lunch in New York City on Aug. 2. The sleeveless number was perfectly accessorized with matching sandals and tortoiseshell shades from Luv Lov.
Joey King’s all-white outfit at the premiere of “Bullet Train” in Los Angeles on Aug. 1 wasn’t one of our favorites… The young star sported a Cong Tri dress comprised of a satin blazer with a plunging neckline and cutouts that flowed into a fringed floor-length skirt. Though we weren’t wild about it, we did appreciate the unique vibe she brought to the pink carpet. Next up? A closer look at her accessories…
Joey King added a simple lengthy Shaun Leane necklace and an edgy Hirotaka ear cuff, which was on full display thanks to her slicked-down hairstyle.
Aubrey Plaza showed off cream coordinates in New York City on Aug. 9. We loved the spaghetti-strap crop top paired with a high-waisted skirt and how she completed her look with cream sandals for a chic NYC summer outfit.
Nick Jonas showed off some chic menswear style at the Cedars-Sinai Board of Governors 50th Anniversary Celebration in Inglewood, California, on Aug. 7. The musician and actor sported a printed short-sleeved burnt orange shirt with black trousers and fun silver boots.
Next up? Another fab menswear moment this month — Dave Franco’s look at the “Day Shift” screening in Miami on Aug. 2. The actor rocked a monochromatic mint green Paul Smith ensemble and added bright white sneakers for a perfectly low-key South Florida look.
Mindy Kaling stepped out in bold Versace coordinates while leaving a taping of “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” in New York City on Aug. 8. We loved the rainbow shades of the buttoned-up jacket and miniskirt combo and the way she paired it with black sandals to give it a more casual edge.
Crop tops are everywhere this summer, but Julianne Hough showed off a new style in New York City on Aug. 2. The star donned this collared short-sleeved version with high-waisted khaki pants held up by a chunky black belt. Finishing the look? Off-white sandals and a cream-hued bag.
